Hell yeah can't wait for my good friend Cody Bellinger to hit many balls and score many runs for the Chicago Cubs.

People are idiots, Leslie.
Roster Resource originally had Belli at 1B, Busch at 3B, and Madrigal rightly on the bench. :unsmith:

Now they have Belli in CF, Busch at 1B, and Madrigal back at 3B :shrug:

I’m guessing this will all depend on a. if Busch actually hits, and b. which one of Shaw or PCA proves they’re ready first.

There is almost no way for this to go that badly. Either Cody is really good and opts out after the first year or he's not and it's only a 3/80 contract which is really not much for the Cubs.

Personally I wish it was a longer guaranteed contract cause I want my good friend Cody to stay in Chicago but it's a sensible contract for both sides and I'm just glad he's back.

Ideal scenario: he mashes and Cubs give him more money. Also he comes to my birthday party.

Cubs lose the WS in 7, but they beat the Brewers in the Wild Card so bad that the Brewers' owner is compelled to leap into Lake Michigan in penance. Cubs reverse the negative trend of ownership spending, though the main impetus is a time-traveling Rickey Henderson stepping out of a portal and stealing Jon Fisher's heart out of his chest on national TV.

It's been a different NL West member both of the last two years, so given that it's also an Even Year, I'm going to say the trend continues and this year it's the Giants.
